guest: joe biden is loose. he gets in front of a television camera and next to the lectern and he looks as comfortable as he was when he was standing on the side just talking with some people. my guess is his body language by the time this starts and any nerves he has diminished will be relatively comfortable. he will look like somebody who feels good and the role they have. he will look like someone who is not worried about being in a leadership position and taking on his opponent. he will look like a senator, frankly, which is what he was. i think he gives off that impression with his body language. he is someone who likes to give and take, someone who is not scared of paul ryan. i don't know about paul ryan. we have not seen him perform in this particular function. will he be tight? will he be very controlled and contained or appear nervous in front of this national stage? will he look like a person to bog down in the details and without sufficient provision? there was a great moment in the 1980 presidential

host: vice-president joe biden at the convention in charlotte, north carolina. do you think the american dream has been downsized? omar is on our republican line. caller: good morning. the american dream -- spanish, i came from the dominican republic to live that dream. i am a small business owner. i have two businesses. the way that it is going, it is heading to collapse. it feels to me like it is a plan for the government to take over businesses. when you pay high taxes as a businessman and you cannot afford to pay employees, he will close the business. the government will come in and build businesses. the government will pretty much takeover. you have no room to dream. we have the ipad, the iphones. the reason we have them is because people were able to dream. if we do not have these things available so people can build stuff, it will be a lack for everybody. when you give people the freedom to be who they are and to build stuff and to do stuff without the government there, things can prosper. it is common sense. can tell by looking at obama and listening to

joe, go ahead. caller: in my opinion, mitt romney is a naked man in a snowstorm when it comes to foreign policy. he single-handedly revealed the existence of mi6, which is a big no-no. we have seen that he has no military experience. none of his family have served in any way. but they do have all these good mormon missionaries. i would like to point out to the republican conservatives, all of this talk about obama getting millions from russia and china for his campaign, this is psycho talk and completely out of line. i do not understand where these people are getting their information. barack obama is a centrist, a conservative leader, and he respects the nation. he has done quite a bit to protect it. host: that was joe, from georgia, this morning. we want to point you to the front page of "the washington journal" this morning. a picture of hugo chavez, the headline saying that he left to victory in venezuela. defeating the challenger who campaigned for change in the oil-rich nation. those are your
